New roguelike is 18+ and starts 95 percent positive on Steam, immortalizes the first conquerors of the final boss

Daily games are released on Steam. A new roguelike rated “Extremely Positive” right at the launch of version 1.0 and the developer has a challenging idea for creators.

What roguelike are we talking about? The game Mortal Sin was released on Steam on August 29, 2025. Before that, it was already available in an Early Access version. The reviews are 95% positive, with over 4,000 ratings. You can choose from dozens of classes – like the Berserker with a massive sword, or the Pirate who prefers to fight with a pistol.

Your goal is to fight through randomly generated nightmares and finally defeat the final boss Enimatik.

Who can participate in the challenge? The developer of Mortal Sin, Nikola Todorovic, posted a post on X, introducing the Creator Challenge. As a creator with 5,000 subscribers or 2,000 average views per video on YouTube or with 5,000 followers or 30 average viewers on Twitch, you can participate in this challenge.

How are creators immortalized? Nikola Todorovic promises the first three conquerors of Enimatik a unique weapon in the game. The creators will be able to help design it and give it a name. Defeating the final boss must of course be proven with a video or livestream.

When asked what difficulty level is set for the challenge, the developer replied that it doesn’t matter. He further states the following on X regarding reaching the end of Mortal Sin: “I don’t expect many creators to even reach it, let alone beat it.”

Players are thrilled with Mortal Sin

What do players say about Mortal Sin? As mentioned before, the reviews are extremely positive on Steam. Steam user Sir.Cheemselot stumbled upon Mortal Sin by chance. In his review, he writes the following:

Honestly, it’s been a long time since I’ve come across a game that is so well thought out and well made, a pure 100/10. I can only recommend it and hope the developer continues the great work.

Another Steam user and big roguelike fan speaks very highly of Mortal Sin. Especially the difficulty of the game is, in his view, a big advantage for hardcore gamers. GhostBeatzZ writes in his review on Steam:

One of the best roguelikes I have ever played, and I have played almost all of them. But be careful: This is not a mindless roguelike like so many others. You need to execute combos, block, parry, and even use your foot and shoulder along with your weapon. And don’t get hit too often, because the game is really challenging and has an extremely high skill ceiling.

Are there also negative voices regarding Mortal Sin? Yes, some players criticize that it still feels like an early access title, as Steam user Dxmoncry writes: “The game still feels like it’s in early access, not enough polish and still straining for the eyes.”

The graphic style is also criticized, which of course is purely a matter of taste. The balancing of the classes is also addressed. A Steam user Obrimus writes that the Warlock class is just bad. Overall, Obrimus criticizes that Mortal Sin has a nice surface, but the more you play, the more weaknesses you find.

In August, another gem was released on Steam. Even older players were surprised by a strange setting in the old school RPG. After 42 years of gaming, a Reddit user saw the option for Oxford commas for the first time: New RPG on Steam surprises even the oldest players: “In 42 years of gaming, I’ve never seen such a setting,” developer explains what it is all about
